Help? I'm doing A2 English Language and I need to find an investigation to do but everything I say, the teacher says isn't good enough. Everything that was good someone else has also thought of.
I need something that doesn't need interaction with people and I can get the data straight off the internet because of how busy I am.

Maybe compare the way language of advertisment was used in Early Modern Period to that of the present day? So you'll be analysing grammatical features including clauses, syntax, pictures, slogans, graphology, etc.
So your main focus is the change and history of the English Language. Your main theories would not be linguists, but grammarians and etymologists.

Thank you for such an early reply. It's a great idea but something tells me that my teacher won't like it because the data "can't be collected". But thank you, it's definitely something to think about.
He's not horrendous...per se. Just...high maintenance and doesn't understand motivations very well. I've picked my investigation it's just really hard to get any comparable data on it.

It's not that good really. 'How Jeremy Kyle speaks to different genders yada yada yada' but the teacher said I needed at least one episode where he speaks to only women and one where he speaks to only men and it's actually really hard because usually it's a mix haha. Out of the million episodes he has done, it's really hard to narrow it down.

I would have done your suggestion but it was already taken so...
Can anyone help me with my English Language coursework? I am doing a comparison between a broadsheet and tabloid newspaper and am investigation the register, frequency of abstract nouns and sentence types as my sub hypotheses. Also what theories could I bring into this? Thanks

Oh really? Yeah sounds like a right hassle! Why can't you just pick where he speaks to women and then just pick where he speaks to men, regardless of mixed gendered episode?! I don't understand why?
